Questo è il link futuro del post che vi sto invitando a leggere nei prossimi giorni su www.serialfiller.org e che qui è in anteprima
Come di consueto oggi vi porto dentro una nuova Anteprima di un articolo che fra qualche giorno o settimana vedrete Nella Mente di un SerialFiller, il mio blog interamente incentrato sul mondo delle serie tv e di cui, da qualche mese, ho deciso di regalarvi costantemente, in anticipo su quello che pubblicherò, gran parte dei post che vedrete su www.serialfiller.org.
Se potesse tornare indietro, l'uomo, ritornerebbe ai tempi della Grey Matters, società fondata con 2 suoi (ex) amici, i quali riuscirono ad appropriarsi delle tante idee brillanti di Walter White per farci poi una valanga di quattrini. Quei soldi non arrivarono mai, come sappiamo, a WW, lasciandolo alla sua misera vita da Mr. Chips, quella vita che lo ha portato a diventare un professore di chimica, un padre di un figlio con problemi motori prima e della piccola Holly poi, marito di una moglie amorevole come Skyler, la quale, però, ha anche saputo tradirlo.
Tutto il resto, è storia.
Il rimpianto di WW, cosi come quello di Mike, è genuino. Avesse a disposizione una macchina del tempo, WW tornerebbe davvero a quei momenti cercando di cambiarli, cercando di cambiare il corso degli eventi, cercando di non costruire una vita che lo avrebbe portato a commettere crimini indicibili e trovarsi, in quello specifico istante, in un seminterrato buio e senza acqua calda in compagnia di un azzeccagarbugli come Saul.
Se per il Saul del deserto la macchina del tempo sarebbe servita a fare ancora più soldi, per il Saul del basement condiviso con Heisenberg, il più grosso rimpianto è rappresentato da una caduta rovinosa che ebbe a fare quando aveva circa 22 anni a Chicago. Nel corso nel corso di una truffettina tipica di Slippin Jimmy, il nostro protagonista cadde provocando un male, che sarebbe durato per sempre, al suo ginocchio.
Ascoltando quella strana e preoccupante confessione, Walter White strabuzza gli occhi, quasi incredulo, per poi affermare con nettezza e delusione:
Quello che Walter White non sa, e non poteva sapere, è che dietro Saul Goodman, o meglio dentro Saul Goodman, c'è un uomo chiamato James McGill, un uomo che ha sofferto l'ingombrante presenza del fratello Chuck, che sognava da sempre di fare l'avvocato, che ha calpestato la vita del fratello pur di ottenere quel prestigio, che ha vissuto un amore smisurato, che è stato abbandonato, che è stato travolto dal crimine e dalla voglia di dimenticare, di rimuovere le cicatrici emotive, di essere qualcun altro, di indossare una maschera che lo proteggesse dai dolori pregressi.
Prima di Saul c'era altro. Dentro l'animo di Saul c'è dell'altro.
C'è Kim.
Dove è Kim?
Arriverà.
Tra pochissimo.
Nulla è lasciato al caso.
L'ultimo viaggio verso Albuquerque di Saul coincide con il primo sguardo che abbiamo avuto su di lui, in termini semantici, più di 10 anni fa, in un'altra serie, in un'altra epoca seriale, in un altro mondo.
Kim non è ancora entrata, fisicamente, in scena ma, quella rivelazione fatta da Castellano pochi minuti prima ha scosso Saul ed ha causato, a poco a poco, il risveglio di Jimmy.
E' proprio sull'aereo che Saul da il via al suo ultimo, elaborato, piano.
Chiederà ad Oakley, il suo avvocato, cosa ne sarà di Kim.
L'avvocato risponderà che non finirà in guai legali ma che potrebbe perdere tutto ciò che ha e che avrà nella vita per via di una causa civile che la vedova di Howard intenterà.
Passa qualche minuto e Saul/Jimmy, rivelerà ad Oakley, in presenza di un agente dell'FBI, che quel gelato, ogni venerdì sarà suo. Ci sono molti dettagli che coinvolgono Kim e che Saul è pronto a mettere sul piatto della procura per ottenere in cambio il suo agognato gelato.

This is the future link to the post that I am inviting you to read in the coming days at www.serialfiller.org and which is previewed here
As usual today I am bringing you inside a new Preview of an article that in a few days or weeks you will see In the Mind of a SerialFiller, my blog entirely focused on the world of TV series and of which, for the past few months, I have decided to give you constantly, in advance of what I will publish, most of the posts you will see at www.serialfiller.org.
Walter White does not betray his character, and with his mind he travels back to what we know is, in fact, his greatest regret, his most mighty regret, an event that has affected his entire life and, after all, gave him the strength to transform himself into Heisenberg.
If he could go back, the man, he would go back to the days of Grey Matters, a company he founded with 2 of his (former) friends, who managed to appropriate Walter White's many brilliant ideas and then make an avalanche of money from them. That money never made it, as we know, to WW, leaving him to his miserable life as Mr. Chips, the life that led him to become a chemistry professor, a father of a son with motor problems first and of little Holly later, husband of a loving wife like Skyler, who, however, also managed to cheat on him.
All the rest, is history.
WW's regret, as well as Mike's, is genuine. Had a time machine at his disposal, WW would really go back to those moments, trying to change them, trying to change the course of events, trying not to build a life that would lead him to commit unspeakable crimes and find himself, at that specific moment, in a dark basement with no hot water in the company of a hot-water-addict like Saul.
Both Mike and Walter White were sincere in their response, first and foremost to themselves.
Both have denoted substantial repentance in becoming what they have become. Both are aware that there were specific events that made them what they are, criminals. Without those moments, both of them could have led lives that were all in all happy and rewarding but without bloodshed, without the constant blackmail of murder hanging over their necks.
Mike
And for Saul?
If for the Saul of the desert the time machine would have served to make even more money, for the Saul of the basement shared with Heisenberg, the biggest regret is a ruinous fall he had to make when he was about 22 years old in Chicago. In the course in the course of a typical Slippin Jimmy con, our protagonist fell causing an ache, which would last forever, in his knee.
Hearing that strange and troubling confession, Walter White squinted, almost in disbelief, and then stated with sharpness and disappointment:
You Were Always Like This
Heisenberg's reaction is clear, justified, and understandable. How can he, a man on the run and with Saul's past, have as his only regret a bum knee?
And then there is only one explanation: Saul Goodman has always been this way, he has always been a petty criminal, a small-time hustler who later became a lawyer and who, once he had the legitimacy of justice in his grasp, continued to be Slippin Jimmy but, this time, behind the courtroom benches, defending criminals, large or small, who shared his world and his way of being in the world.
What Walter White does not know, and could not have known, is that behind Saul Goodman, or rather inside Saul Goodman, is a man named James McGill, a man who has suffered from the cumbersome presence of his brother Chuck, who always dreamed of being a lawyer, who trampled on his brother's life in order to gain that prestige, who experienced unbounded love, who was abandoned, who was overwhelmed by crime and the desire to forget, to remove the emotional scars, to be someone else, to wear a mask that would protect him from past hurts.
Before Saul there was more. Inside Saul's soul there is more.
There is Kim.
Where is Kim?
He will arrive.
In a very short time.
But first, we board a 737, a Waifarer that will take inmate Saul Goodman to the courtroom in Albuquerque.
His Albuquerque.
Their Albuquerque.
Our Albuquerque.
Waifarer is the airline of that plane that crashed, during the second season of Breaking Bad over Albuquerque (remember the pink teddy bear in the pool?). It was also the first impact, the first link to Saul Goodman, a lawyer who was blowing up in town thanks to his ad campaigns to gather clients to bundle in a class action suit against the airline.
On the seats that house Saul, Oakley and an FBI agent on the flight to Albuquerque we glimpse the company's lettering and logo.
Nothing is left to chance.
Saul's last trip to Albuquerque coincides with our first glimpse of him, in semantic terms, more than 10 years ago, in another series, in another serial era, in another world.
Kim has not yet entered, physically, the scene but, that revelation made by Castellano minutes earlier shook Saul and caused, little by little, Jimmy's awakening.
It is on the very plane that Saul kicks off his latest, elaborate, plan.
He will ask Oakley, his lawyer, what will become of Kim.
The lawyer will reply that she will not get into legal trouble but that she may lose everything she has and will have in life because of a civil suit that Howard's widow will file.
A few minutes pass and Saul/Jimmy, will reveal to Oakley, in the presence of an FBI agent, that that ice cream, every Friday will be his. There are many details involving Kim that Saul is ready to put on the proxy plate to get his coveted ice cream in return.
We remain astonished and concerned but, in our hearts, we know that that is just a move, the first move, toward redemption. We hope so, and somehow we genuinely believe it.
And here she comes on the scene.
Kim Wexler.
In black and white.
In her uncomfortable, gray Florida.
She is about to take the stage.
